Transform Your Room With Colourful Art

No matter the style of your room, colourful art can always find its place and purpose in it. Walls should never be left empty, but should always be decorated with some nice paintings that express your preferences, your likes and favourites. Plus, they give a certain personality to a home; an owner that loves music, someone who is into flowers, or maybe an owner that has deep knowledge in great art masterpieces? Sure you don’t have to put aside half of your monthly salary to get colourful art; there are a lot of good pieces sold online and offline, for a very affordable price. Nevertheless, before you actually buy any, here is how to choose, what to choose and where to place it:

Have in mind the color scheme of your room

This is very important as you don’t want to crowd your room and create a colour mess. If your room is decorated with colourful furniture and a lot of decorations, don’t go for colourful art; but choose something more mono-coloured, or something with very little colour on it, or don’t place art on your walls at all. Better nothing that an art crowd.

Choose what is pleasant for your eyes

You know what you enjoy most; are you a flower lover, an animal lover, or you enjoy the famous and luxurious pieces by great art Masters? If you enjoy looking at different flowers for instance, why not place them in your room on the walls? Or maybe a colourful caption of your favourite animals?

How to choose paintings

So, this is the most important question: once you get green light for putting colourful art on your walls, how to choose what to place on them?

• The large scale painting – a large scale painting is good for giving your room a dramatic look. It’s big, it steals the attention point of anyone entering the room, and it’s the hardest to pick because of it. The thing to remember here is that the larger the painting is, the more formal it should feel, because in combination with the rest of the furniture and elements, it should contribute to a tastefully designed room, not just randomly selected pieces placed together in a room.

• The symmetrical grouping - groupings of paintings mean instant classic look. Botanical groupings look very classy and create sort of calming effect, so they’re perfect if your room has neutral colours like beige, white, black or grey.

• Bold coloured art – to add some glamour and energy to your rooms, use bold colours that contrast your furniture and other elements. If your room feels boring somehow, or you just want to refresh it a little, use colourful art where bold colours dominate and voila – you have glamour in your house.

Finally, remember that you’re doing this to bring life to your rooms and make a refreshing change. Don’t feel pressured by any guidelines or advice you don’t find suitable. Follow your own taste and preferences and choose what catches your eye.
